Description du lot

The MIST Collection. 39 graded PR-65, 37 higher at PCGS. An extremely low emission of circulating examples (themselves frequently found prooflike) places undue strain on the proof format for 1885, but aside from that, the quality seen here stands upon its own merits. Exceedingly well detailed, the eggshell-white presence offers a fair degree of cameo contrast, although not enough to be designated by PCGS. Some random, tiny grey flecks stray across the obverse to limited extent.
